Ingredients
The following ingredients have 36 Servings
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar (plus 2-3 more tablespoons for dusting later)
- 1/2 cup oil (vegetable, canola, or avocado are fine)
- 1 egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
Instruction
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar together on medium speed.
- Add oil, egg, vanilla extract, lemon zest and juice and mix again on medium speed until creamy and smooth.
- In another bowl, mix flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar.
- With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture until a sticky dough comes together. Stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl, and then mix one more time.
- Drop 1 tablespoon of dough per cookie onto the prepared baking sheet using a spring-loaded scoop (12 per sheet). Bake for 11-13 minutes, and then remove them from the oven. Dust with powdered sugar while still warm, and then transfer to a cooling rack. Dust with additional powdered sugar if desired.
- Store in an airtight container once they are completely cooled for 3-5 days.
